Light Into Darkness

Out of nowhere; the lights shattered Within a moment; the darkness has filled, My heart was no more; in a mood of lightness My life has suddenly; twisted and disappeared. It was like an abandon thunderstorm Came into my life and destroyed my destiny, I found myself in an isolated nightmare Where I was able to define reality. I clarified it as an empty hole Where it was filled with cold water, As a candy with a taste of bitterness And a war which never made it better. Though I wondered through years If the lights will appear again, It’s like living in a desert And wishing it could rain. At last I gave up and sat On the solid chair of torture, I’m still sitting and waiting If the darkness is ever going to departure.

Cause of Your Seducing Power

Trapping me; with your seducing eyes
Showing me your spirit; as a beautiful light,
You’ve got me spinning; within the touch of your mind
You made me shine; in the middle of the night.

The touch of your body; against my chest
The smile on your lips; that dig through my heart,
It’s as if I’m close; to the fire of flame
Which I’m afraid of; for it to rip me apart.

I’m half surviving; through your love of danger
I’m still crawling; without losing my breath,
If you win me over; with your seducing power
You will have the memory; of seeing my death.
